HELP. I'm freaking out. Has anyone ever been denied employment because they have poor credit? $5k in debt, behind on credit cards, no bankruptcy or other major issues. No criminal history. They (UBS) sent me a pre-adverse action letter to explain why I have bad credit. Does this mean I won't get the job?

Alphabet & Moonshots - typical salaries/offers? I am hoping for an offer from a moonshot here in the next week or so, and was wondering if anyone had data on how those relate to the usual Google offers, please. Thanks!

I am moving to HC! But I have been asked to submit few details that will help in creating my packet. Some of these details include Salary expectations, name of Googlers who can give references internally and reasons to leave previous companies.

The salary I was drawing currently is above market standards. And the feedback that I had initially received during the interviewas mixed followed by Positive in the later stages.

Will it be safe to give an expected num based on my base at this stage?

I’m a new analyst at an IB group. I’ve felt that I’ve done well my first month or two and delivered higher quality work, but I feel that lately I’ve been slipping up the past few weeks given the intensity of the deal as well as having multiple peripheral work streams. It also doesn’t help the second year analyst quit so I don’t necessarily have a resource to lean into. (Cont.)
